LIBERALISM
 an image of world politics that emphasizes
the multiplicity of international actors—states,
international organizations, and transnational
organizations—and the conditions under
which international cooperation can be
achieved
 States are usually recognized as key actors
in world politics, but they are not the only
important ones
 Realist prefer term "International Relations«
 Liberals prefer term "world politics"
INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS (IO)
 United Nations, European Union
 liberals do not see the state as a unitary,
rational, power-oriented actor, indeed see as
battleground for conflicting bureaucratic
interests, subject to the pressures of both
domestic and transnational interest groups.
GLOBAL CIVIL SOCIETYREFERS TO THE
MULTITUDE OF INSTITUTIONS
 1 voluntary organizations
 2 women’s groups
 3 human rights organizations
 4 environmental activists
 5 chambers of commerce and etc.
VIEWS ON POSSIBILITIES OF
PEACEFUL INTERNATIONAL
CHANGE
Realists VS Liberals
 Liberals are interested in the modalities of
global governance and the role of global
institutions in these processes. In this regard,
global governance does not mean world
government, but refers to the ways and
means by which state and nonstate actors
deal authoritatively with issue on global and
regional agendas
IMANUEL KANT
 "Perpetual Peace” a world of good, morally
responsible states would be less likely to
engage in wars.
 International cooperation and peaceful
engagement among states and other actors
are possible; there are no insuperable
obstacles to block us, although achieving
such progress takes decisive actions by both
state and nonstate actors—international and
nongovernmental organizations as well as
individuals and groups of one kind or
another.
